Here are the chords to the song "Manchild" by Steven Page (formerly of Barenaked
Ladies). This song is not yet on an album, but it was released as a single earlier

I'll [C]be true
You k[Em]now I'll never break your heart
I [Dm]hear you
[G] Could you repeat the last part?
[Cborus]
[C]Darling, you're talking to a m[Am]an now.
You're talking to a m[G]an now, child.
Speak sl[F]owly, speak sl[G]owly
[Verse 2]
Sweetheart,
What do you think I do all day?
I make Art
When inspiration blows my way.
Oh, the shouting?
I'm getting kind of used to that
But this doubting my intentions?
Well honey, that just makes me sad.
[Cborus] (x2)
Darling, you're talking to a manchild
Darling, you're talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly
[Bridge]
[C] You ask for c[Am]onversation
[C] You ask for u[Am]nderstanding
[C] But then you [Am]say you want a [Dm]man, [Em]yeah
[C] Look how h[Am]ard I'm trying:
[C] I'll let you [Am]watch me crying.
[C] I'm just like [Am]you, but I'm a [G]man.[F]
[Instrumental]
C, Am, G, F, G (x2)
[Verse 3]
I know you
You think I'm just a lazy jerk
But I miss you
Babe when you're away at work.
And Genius
Can strike a man at any time
So I'm waiting
Let's cut it with the heavy sighs.
[Cborus] (x2)
Darling, you're talking to a manchild
Darling, you're talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly
[End on C]
